    And some of us haven't needed to get involved in it because it's too broad and doesn't really require skilled contractors, but just permietractors.

    The driver of the Jaguar I-Pace had been travelling on the M58 at about 14:15 GMT on Wednesday before calling police to plead for help.

    Officers were able to escort the car on to the M57 and then the M62.

    It was finally halted 25 minutes later between Junction 11 for Birchwood and 12 for Eccles, police said.

    Did he miss his junction?

    It was always going to be an issue with "drive by wire" if they didn't know what they are doing. Surprised the authorities deemed it fit for the road.

    Apparently its horribly common with the new jags.
